| I have never seen a single leg take down defense like this. He may have a future in MMA.

| That was pretty bad... but it would only work once in MMA and then only because of surprise.. The second time you tried it you're ankle would be snapped. Had that kid accidentally held on the boy in green would have been hurting bad! _________________ Crede Ut Intelligas

| I know little about wresting but PB's comment reminded me of the movie Karate Kid. He does that bird like stance and kicks the opponent. In Karate Kid 2, he was in Japan in a fight where the loser, supposedly would be killed. He does that bird like stance and it does work this time .
Fool me once. Fool me twice it's my fault. _________________ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WixcqHFm-H8 |

| I was a halfway decent HS wrestler back in the day... but have NEVER seen something like that!! That is impressive. I suppose if word got out among those in his league/weight class that he tries to do a flip when you attack a leg, his opponents would prepare for it and have plenty of good options. But here he's got the element of surprise, apparently, not to mention tremendous physical ability to pull the other guy through a back flip with him. I'm impressed!

| The kid is creative and brave!The move itself was impressive-the attitude that allowed it more so! We practice tuite and jujutsu in our martial arts dojo-wait til Master sees this! Thanks J Tony |
